For Trade Sarracenia for other temperate /low humidity CP

[NewspaperFort]

Hello. I'm at wits end with what to do with all my sarracenia. They crowd each other out and I can't work on propagating those I love.

I'd love to trade large, mature divisions of non-cold-hardy sarracenia for cold-hardy sarracenia, drosera, *utricularia*, genlisea, or really anything besides upland nepenthes. Also interested in dwarf conifers and other trees suited to zone 8b

I do hate shipping so you'll have to forgive me if I fail. I'll always resend with a better plan if that happens.

Unfortunately, I always forgot to log back on here, so if it's not unreasonable to post it, you can find me at frankchurchriver on insta

Sarracenia forever

I didn't know there were non cold hardy sarrs. Interesting. Could you give me an example? I know this is a trade post, but I won't have anything to trade for a few mos, so I will have to stick to trading information only for now.

I believe northern latitude purpurea are more cold hardy. Not exactly on my radar as a grower in a warmer area, but I found this thread with more info.

Hey no problem. This conversation isn't only restricted to trade. Yes indeed, most or all sarracenia go dormant in temperate climate, and most lost their leaves at that time. Some plants keep their leaves for two or even three years- most notably sarracenia purpurea and some hybrids of such, but also sarracenia psittacina. Even amongst those species, there are some plants that are more cold hardy than others.

That being said, I've never been to sarracenia fields in the southeast, so I don't know if there's some plants that retain their leaves or even skip dormancy in a more subtropical climate. I know that seedlings can be forced and seem not to suffer missing dormancy in their early years.
Perhaps not related but I've just had a psittacina root cutting that has been grown indoors, flower after just one year.
